agreed. it would total turd

... on second thoughts. that isn't really funny is it. quite scary in fact

FYP

what exactly is there to be positive about at the moment?

Worse than the likes of Amadady Faye, Boumsong or Luque? I'm everything but a fan of Smith because of his volatile style, but saying he is the worst signing of recent years is way over the top iyam. my opinion of course but i'd put smith on par with all of the above. he came with a big price tag, and as a striker not to have scored one goal all season, he'll be one of the main reasons why we go down (if we do). you won't stay up if your strikers don't score goals. Smith is a decent player playing crap in a crap team. He was just not what we needed when we signed him. I have no doubt he would perform better with the players around him doing better as well. The not scoring argument is a bit too simplistic for me. I wouldn't be bothered about his scoring record if his all around game benefited his striking partners, which actually was the case in some of the game he played up front. Anyway how many games did he play up front in total and against which teams? i've no idea. but i know he's started a fair share of them up front. and he's been a first choice starting lineup all season. to not register one goal as an attacking player (even one who plays in midfield as well as up front) is pretty pathetic, especially as he cost £7m. he's definitely one of the premiership's biggest flops of the season and one of our worst value for money buys - and god knows there have been a few of those in recent times.

i think we'd get around 35k in the championship. that's our hardcore support. a smaller crowd would actually probably improve the atmosphere

i love a tryer. but if he's going to play up front it helps if he can pitch in with the occasional goal. smith is definitely our worst signing of recent years. imagine the stick he'd be getting as a striker who has played most of our games this season without scoring if he was a foreigner

fucking hard league to get out of. day trips to palace and hull and getting up early on sunday to watch the championship highlights? no thanks. relegation would be a disaster of the highest order. wednesday have been languishing in the lower leagues for the best part of a decade. we could go the same way

I still think nine points from the home games against Fulham, Reading and Sunderland should be enough. Problem is only that another poor result against Birmingham could put the state of confidence beyond repair. well; there's that and the fact that it'll probably put us in the bottom three. we need to keep this in our own hands. i wouldn't want to rely on other clubs dropping points to stay up

if we lose against brimingham i can see us going dowm. they're the games we have to be getting something at

never rated him. will be glad to see him gone, even at a significant loss.

how low can you go?

you think this thread is overly gloomy given our current situation?

Barton is not a defensive midfielder. but is viana?

whoops, wrong forum. mods - can you move please? thanks

....or do you think he'd be the ideal man to take us back up again?

£6.5m....fucking hell, we get shafted don't we

they could put their second string out and thump us tbf

how can he come out with crap like that when he hasn't scored a goal this season? i wouldn't be shouting my mouth off if i had his goal record for us

i think we could well be fucked. the birmingham, mackem and reading games are all relegation six pointers. win those 3 and pick up the odd point elsewhere and we should be ok. lose any of them and i reckon we're going down because we won't pick up many wins against any of thoe other teams we're playing in the run in on current form

no need to post the lad's mobile number on here like.

i doubt he's the answer but he can't be much worse than smith

how could they leave out this ari gold classic from entourage? Ari: Tell Drama he's on the top of my list of things to do today, along with inserting needles in my cock!
